You Are My Mr Right

The woman seemed to not have heard him, urging, “Please eat quickly!”

Elijah furrowed his brow.

She was clearly trying to divert the conversation.

“I want to know, why did you all keep me here? What is your purpose?” he asked.

The woman said, “I don’t understand.”

And then she turned and walked away.

Elijah furrowed his brow deeply.

The woman took the food and went to the vineyard to find her husband.

The husband was sitting on the ground, taking off his gloves.

The woman squatted beside him and said, “How should we deal with that man?”

The husband ate with his head lowered, remaining silent.

Perhaps he hadn’t figured out what to do yet.

“How about we release him?” the woman tried asking.

The husband still ate with his head down, offering no response.

After finishing his meal, he raised his head and said, “Release him?”

The woman nodded and said, “Yes, release him. He’s a Z countryman, he shouldn’t be…”

“We are so secluded here, how could he appear? Isn’t that strange?” The man looked at his wife. “Our vineyard is just a cover. What’s hidden behind is not something others should see. If he leaks it, what should we do? Don’t forget how we ended up here.”

The woman fell silent.

She dared not bring it up again.

“He always asks me, I don’t know how to answer.” The woman replied.

The man pondered for a moment. “Just pretend not to understand.”

The woman had always done so.

“We can’t release him, so do we just keep him locked up forever? What if someone above discovers him?”

“By then, we’ll lock him in the cellar. We can’t kill him.” The man put down his bowl and continued working.

The woman cleared the dishes.

Elijah sat on the edge of the bed.

He didn’t even dare to eat the food here.

When the woman returned and saw the untouched food, she said, “Go ahead and eat.”

Elijah still didn’t move.

The woman added, “If we wanted to kill you, we would have done it already.”

Elijah’s heart skipped a beat!

Who on earth were these people?!

“It’s not poisoned, don’t starve yourself.” The woman said and left.

Elijah heard her footsteps as she left, stood up, and felt his way out!

There was a door.

He crossed it.

Other than the woman who appeared in front of him and the voice of a man, he hadn’t heard anyone else here!

It seemed like there was no one else here.

He needed to make sure if there really was no one outside.

He always listened carefully to the woman’s footsteps whenever she went out.

Although stumbling, he managed to make it out.

He could feel the difference in the air.

He tried to walk a bit outside.

If there were other people here, they could see him this way.

This woman was clearly pretending to be silly in front of him.

Ask her anything, and she wouldn’t say a word!

Bang!

He accidentally stumbled on something.

Making a loud noise.

The woman walked over, “How did you get out?”

Elijah stood still.

The woman looked him up and down.

When she rescued him, he was wearing a suit, and he was tall and slender, looking like an undercover.

As if he was here to investigate them.

This place is so remote.

No one would normally show up!

“Come inside, outside is not safe,” the woman said.

Elijah said, “Inside is not safe either.”

The woman fell silent, “I told you, we won’t kill you. If we wanted to get rid of you, we wouldn’t have saved you. We would have thrown you down the mountain.”

Elijah asked, “Then why did you save me and yet refuse to release me?”

“Because we’re afraid you might leak information,” the woman said.
